Author(s): Anam Nadeem*, Andrea Bartolini, Roman Kalvin and Gabriele Comodi
Fossil fuels are the main primary resources for electricity generation in Pakistan. Over the last few years there has been a consistent growth in industrialization and population in the main cities, which might lead to such resources not being enough to fulfill the future energy demands in a sustainable way. Meanwhile, over half the remote rural areas are unable to access electricity. Consequently, it is necessary to look for the alternate solutions. This paper aims at studying technological solutions to meet such growing electricity demand, by also considering its environmental impact. For this purpose, a case study of a district in Pakistan is considered in its electricity demand; measured with an hourly resolution for a whole year that includes two different users: a set of factories and a residential district. The power plant uses two different electricity generation systems: a 22.. View More»
